The joys of stormy weather

There was a lot of weather through the area over the weekend. Fortunately for us we just got lots of rain. The photos show what our yard was looking like after about an hour of downpour. Most of it was gone by later in the day. We've had worse.
The end of our yard. The storm ditch is full and starting to overflow.
We are on a hill so everything flows down and ends up in the two creeks.
Our back yard drainage system at work. Who needs a pool :) We do have to re-surface the blacktop at some point.

Thanks for your comment on MMB! Yes, walking up and down the stairs a gazillion times does count! Especially if you do it for 30 min a day!

What a storm! I live in washington so I'm used to rain, but that's quite a dumping!
